(B) G protein

(C) GTP

(D) adenylyl cyclase

Endothelins are 21-amino acid vasoconstricting peptides produced primarily in the endothelium. They have an important role in vascular homeostasis. Endothelin activates G protein-coupled receptors  (GPCRs) ETA or ETB on a target cell.  Which subunit of heterotrimeric G protein is released when the receptor is activated? a.) gamme b.) beta c.) alpha
Dopamine, epinephrine (or norepinephrine) and histamine are important neurotransmitter agonists. When these ligands interact with their cellular receptors, how do they mainly elicit their responses? Choose the correct answer(s) and explain why. a) Activate adenylyl cyclase directly, leading to increased intracellular cAMP levels b) Activate phospholipase C c)Induce or inhibit synthesis of ligand specific intracellular proteins d) Open or close ligand gated ion channels e) Regulate intracellular second messengers through G-protein-coupled receptors
Identify which of the following statements is a lie? Select one: a.Diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol triphosphate (IP3) are byproducts of enzymatic cleaving of PIP2 using phospholipase C while PIP2 formed via enzymatic activity of kinases. b.cAMP is an important second messenger because it serves to activate or inactivate proteins within the cells, especially those cells which their metabolic pathways are regulated by cAMP-dependent kinase (A-kinase). c.Second messengers are molecules that act alternative to signaling molecules to bind to the receptors by altering the structure of cellular proteins.
